Pie Junkie has released a lineup of frozen pies just in time for summer, and we’ve got our eye on the raspberry semifreddo. This take on the Italian dessert has a frozen mousse texture and is topped with a vibrant raspberry purée that is sure to make it a showstopper on any table.

Sunday Fuzz from Wild Rose Brewery
Wild Rose Brewery has brought back its seasonal Sunday Fuzz beer for a third year, and if that weren’t good news enough, it’s in support of a good cause. When you buy a four-pack of the beer, 25 cents will support the work of the Chimo Animal Assisted Wellness and Learning Society. You can get your hands on the peach-flavoured hefeweizen at the Wild Rose taproom, online and at local retailers.
